Got these three last week in Co. Wicklow, the big lad came to the call within a couple of minutes, all i gave was three blasts of the caller, he weighed out at 60kgs in the larder.
The other two stags came from approximatley 500mtrs to the call, last week was the first week that they started reacting to the call properly.
I use the buttolo call, have used it for the last four or five years, i have found it very useful.
You can replicate the sika call with a bit of practice, i have found that you dont have to overuse it, if there is a stag in the area even one blast of it will get their attention, a couple of times i have called a couple of stags at the same time.
I imitate the whistle and you can make the deep growl sound that the sika make when your very close to them with practice ill try and get a video and post it up.
